Long barrow 150m west of Churchill Copse in Wychwood Forest is a Neolithic communal burial monument situated in Oxfordshire. The barrow represents the funerary practices of early farming communities of the fourth and third millennia before the present, a period when such earthen mounds served as enduring focal points for collective ritual and burial within the landscape. The monument survives as an earthwork within the woodland environment, preserving evidence of Neolithic settlement patterns and ceremonial practice in the Cotswolds region. As a scheduled ancient monument, it remains an important archaeological resource for understanding the material culture and social organisation of early prehistoric Britain.
